john dick erson has more on how the obama campaign won the election. >> president obama won re-election as 44th president of the united states by defeating governor mitt romney across a whole host of battleground states. this election had been tight in the polls right up until the election day, but in the end, president obama won more than the 270 electoral votes necessary for re-election. he did it through a combination of things by defining governor romney as a symbol of all that has gone wrong with the economy in the key state of ohio after so much discussion about ohio, it was the one that put president obama over the top. but he also had a positive message to sell in that state. the auto bailout that he put in place in 2009 is a hit with voters and his ability to sell that economic plan through difficult economic times was a success for him in that state. in other states, the president put together a coalition similar to but smaller than the one that had brought him to victory in 2008. his share of white voters actually shrunk from the previous election, but he did very well among
